How are the powdered metal 4.6 rods holding up? I worry on my 4.6 if they can crack the crank end reliably, are other cracks are just a disaster waiting to happen? This guy says 400 Hp before there is a problem. Does anyone race their 4.6 hard enough to confirm or deny that? Thanks! I would love a supercharger on my 4.6, but expect if I do not mess with it that 300k miles is a possibility.

Off topic, On How It's Made : Dream Cars, there are many women working on Corvettes. About half look like they could have been there a long time. I knew it was a good paying gig, but GM must have it so brawn is not needed to reduce injuries. This show is what brought up the cracked rod ends. Even the Stingray is using them.
